-edit jan 23 2014 - toe changed from 0/0 to -0.03 / +0.12.
Another setup renewal from one of mine in GT5. This time I fully re-tuned the car because the GT5 setup don't translate very well in GT6.
Okay. So back in the glorious days of GT2 or GT3 I don't really remember, here's my favorite car. Not by performance, by chassis and driving.
I kept racing and racing vs my brother, who used a R32 or 33, and kept loosing and loosing. Anyway I love the car.
I'd so would want to see a real one, since here in France you can't see a lot of them. This exact car is the one I buy in real life if someday I'm rich. This, or an Alpine Renault A110.
With this setup I tried to acheive how I feel the spirit of NSX are. I'm quite proud about the result and I know that a lot of you guys won't like this one. This is a very personal setup. The handling is risky, but very rewarding if trained and done rigth. Try her and tell me !
RS/RS helps really a lot but you risk barrel rolls sometime while drifting esp. on Trial Mountain. Aero depending on the choosen track could help to learn the car. An aero setup here is put in option.
The LSD locks are very common, so the car is rewarding a lot if you know the LSD by heart. The standard clutch helps a lot to smooth LSD locks. Try with a triple plate if you don't beleive me...
1337 or oldschool NSX drivers only !
Any comments, improvements or suggestions are of course welcomed.

- Racing Hard/Hard - You can put Racing Soft/Soft from record attempts, the car is still drivable with Hard/Hard, tends to drift.

The aero part is ugly. Really really ugly. And it deserve the drifting agility on bumpy roads like Trial Montain or fast/multiple corners like in Rome.
But it helps a lot for races with smooth curves like High Speed Ring. The aero makes strange effects at 150 km/h while drifting.
You want one on races with smooth 200km/h+ curves.
Driving aids
- ABS : 1
Else all 0/off
Tuning circuit
- Roma 1:12.663 -edit- 1'07.915
- Trial Mountain 1:28.608 clean - with RS/RS tires, realistic grass, no SRF (beat me ! If I could drive better I could do 1:27'5xx !)
- Monza online (no aero - ranked a #2 on 8-10 drivers at the start, #2 in lap times too, RS/RS... Eternal #2 car...)
- High Speed Ring (aero, RS/RS, in the 1:07.991, very easy to beat).
Tip
- I hope you know what kind of cars are NSX before coming in her cockpit.
- The LSD is set low so it locks everytime but not very strong since the clutch is a standard one. If, no, when the LSD locks, be gentle with the steering, don't make violent left rigth moves. Be somehow kind on the accel and brake pedal too.
- Typical smooth curve (any length) :
* brake hard
* let go the brake and downshift, let your motor brake
* turn. The car starts to drift (the lsd locks), hold your direction.
* If not enough grips, put small kicks on gaz to get grip back (but not completly to keep drifting). If too much gaz, you're dead. If no gaz you're dead. If brake, you're dead.
Downshifting can be done while drifting at low rev due to the standard clutch (you're dead with a triple plate). Downshifting at high rev while drifting, you're dead.
* Try geting back grip with louder gaz at the end of the corner, that would make the LSD unlocks (you can see a very small "click" on the direction when done). Then take a little more confidence on the gaz pedal. Don't turn after this because the accel LSD can lock.
* Congrats you're alive and at a good speed if done rigth
- Countersteering is possible but do this without touching the gaz or brake. Golden rule here : one thumb at a time (or be very very kind).
- I setup'ed so you can also brake late, enter a curve at slow speed then jump on the gaz pedal and countersteering. This is very cinematographic, but that don't work everytime, not even half of the time. The LSD should make the car auto-come back there. Helps in fast S curves or in case of emergency.
- The car can also auto-turn around the Roma L curve. What I call autoturn is just brake when the weigth is a little on the outside of the corner, a very small wheel tap then neutral pos, small accel kicks as usual, then full accel when the LSD unlocks. Magic.
- Never, ever, ever lock the LSD at high rev. See the wall ? Okay, now barrelling ? Ok so, don't do this ever. This is the main problem of any high HP NSX you'll ever see everywhere. The answer to this is the standard clutch. That trick helps RR setups too for a cost in performances of like 0.1%.
